3. Installation

Always keep the power cables away from the signal cables by running

them in different conduits and using separate distribution boxes.

This product is intended for installation into

concrete or other hard pan substrate. It is not intended for installation into soft substrates including, but not limited to, soil or mulch.

Ilumipod Inground Tri-3 IP Optic 25 WW products can support

a distributed load of up to 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) when properly installed.

Installation Notes The Ilumipod Inground Tri-3 IP Optic 25 WW consists of two parts: the product housing and the concrete installation sleeve. The product housing is IP67-rated. The installation sleeve is not. Read the Installation Sleeve Setup instructions carefully. Do not use the product’s junction box to extend the power or signal cables to other units. This might compromise the IP rating of the junction box. Instead, use individual cables from the product to the corresponding distribution boxes.

Installation Sleeve Orientation You will have to run the AC power and signal cables from the base of the fixture into the installation sleeve. Position the installation sleeve so that the signal cable exits the sleeve using one of the two cable outlets. Use the opposite outlet for the power cable (refer to the following figure). This method will reduce the stress to the signal and power cables when setting the product down, while keeping them separated under the product’s housing.

Installation Sleeve Setup When setting up the installation sleeve, make sure that any water that may have entered can drain out of the sleeve. Locate the installation sleeve above the normal drainage level so the product is never under more than 1 m of water for more than 30 minutes (IP67) during heavy rain. In addition, make sure that the installation sleeve and the stainless steel collar are horizontal and even with the ground surface. This helps distribute the load uniformly over the product’s surface and avoids creating dangerous bumps.

5. Technical Information

Always dry the external optics and glass surfaces carefully

after cleaning them.

If you still experience technical problems after

trying the solutions in the Troubleshooting Table, contact ILUMINARC® Technical Support.

Product Maintenance To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean the products frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining the cleaning frequency. As a general guideline, products should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build-up reduces light output, performance, and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced light source life. For products containing external optical lenses, clean them periodically to optimize light output. The cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the product operates. Damp, smoky, or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the product’s optics, requiring more frequent cleaning. To clean a product: • Disconnect the product from power. • Wait until the product is at room temperature. • Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the

external surfaces. • Clean all external glass optics and glass surfaces with a mild solution of glass cleaner or

isopropyl alcohol, and a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or lens-cleaning tissue. • Apply the solution directly to the cloth or tissue and wipe any dirt and grime to the outside

edge of the lens. Gently polish the external glass surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.

Product Repairs ILUMINARC® strongly advises you against attempting any repairs to this product unless you are an authorized ILUMINARC® technician. ILUMINARC® presents the information contained in the Troubleshooting Guide as potential solutions only. In most cases, opening the product’s housing will invalidate its warranty.

LED Disclaimer LED Life

ILUMINARC® rates LED lifetime based on lumen depreciation of 70% of the original output, with data provided by the manufacturer of the LED. Data from the manufacturer of the LED are not independently verified or measured by ILUMINARC®. When the product is operating in optimal environmental conditions, the LED lifetime is rated to be 50,000 to 70,000 hours by the LED manufacturer.

LED Binning LED manufacturers sort LEDs into “bins,” based on variances in color, output intensity, and the frequency at which the semiconductor operates. ILUMINARC® strives to hold its LED manufacturers to the highest standards of binning to optimize consistency in output from product to product. However, the availability of a single bin cannot be guaranteed. With that in mind, ILUMINARC® has developed a rigorous control system to seek the best-achievable consistency in color and output.

Color Rendering Index (CRI) CRI is an industry standard method to compare properties of different types of light sources. There are known limitations and inconsistencies related to CRI. Results may vary depending on the environmental factors involved. For this reason, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) states that CRI should be considered as one point of reference among others in evaluating white LED products and systems. The following is an excerpt of recommendations from the DOE:

1. Identify the visual tasks to be performed under the light source. If color fidelity under different light sources is critically important (for example, in a space where color or fabric comparisons are made under both daylight and electric lighting), CRI values may be a useful metric for rating LED products.

2. CRI may be compared only for light sources of equal correlated color temperature. This applies to all light sources, not only to LEDs. Also, differences in CRI values of less than five points are not significant, e.g., light sources with 80 and 84 CRI are essentially the same.

3. If color appearance is more important than color fidelity, do not exclude white light LEDs solely on the basis of relatively low CRI values. Some LED products with CRIs as low as 25 still produce visually pleasing white light.

4. Evaluate LED systems in person and, if possible, on-site when color fidelity or color appearance are important issues.
